Cast iron, however, is generally more cost efficient and less labor intensive than wrought iron because it doesn’t need to be worked by hand. Since the iron is shaped by pouring it into molds, cast iron is often used to create very intricate designs or to recreate historical or period-specific patterns very precisely.
Furthermore, you can consider contacting architectural salvage stores that specialize in recycling old building materials. These stores often look for unique or antique wrought iron pieces to offer to their customers.
